I got the rest of the hardware I need to secure the scattershield. Once everything was tight, I was able to adjust the dial indicator to get it as flat as possible. I took two sets readings as I've seen it explained both ways. Doing it the way you mentioned Todd, my high point was 0.045 and the opposite was around .007, so giving me a difference of 0.038.

When I did it the other way, while looking at the scattershield my quarter readings were: .010 at 3 o'clock, 0.041 at 6 o'clock and 0.031 at 9 0'clock. The highest reading was at about 7 o'clock or so.

Now that I know I need new dowels, which sizes would you recommend? Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciate it.

Hope this looks right:
